Deathwatch Veteran (Flesh Tearers chapter)

Veteran equipped with boltgun and close combat weapon.

The Flesh Tearers are the smallest Second Founding Successor Chapter of the Blood Angels, numbering only four full companies of Astartes. 

Like their progenitors, the Flesh Tearers are known for their bloodthirsty nature in battle, bad temper and feared for the flaws like the Black Rage and the Red Thirst that they carry within their gene-seed.

Many Chapters have become wary of the Flesh Tearers, with their dire reputation for unrestrained carnage and their excesses of violence. 

The Flesh Tearers call the violent and tropical Death World of Cretacia home.

Deathwatch Veteran (Star Phantoms chapter)

Veteran with Stalker pattern boltgun.

The Star Phantoms are a Loyalist Space Marine Chapter of the 23rd Founding created in the early 38th Millennium from an unknown origin. Some Imperial savants suspect that the Star Phantoms were created from the gene-seed of the Dark Angels. 

Created during the so-called "Sentinel" Founding, the Star Phantoms were one of several Chapters whose mission was to take and hold various xenos-contested regions on the very borders of the Emperor’s domains.

The Star Phantoms became a fleet-based Chapter after the loss of their homeworld Haakoneth, slowly rebuilding their strength and participating in numerous conflicts and interventions across the Segmentum Obscurus.

The Star Phantoms' success during the final apocalyptic engagement of the Badab War was honoured by the granting of overlordship over the now ruined worlds of the Badab Sector, and the Chapter chose the ice-moon of Jahga in the Archean System upon which to found their new fortress-monastery.

Deathwatch Veteran (Sons of Medusa chapter)

Veteran with boltgun and close combat weapon.

"Purge the Weak!"

The Sons of Medusa are a Loyalist Successor Chapter of Space Marines drawn from the unforgiving Iron Hands Chapter whose existence was ratified by an Imperial edict of the High Lords of Terra in 011.M37. 

The thousand or so Battle-Brothers of the Sons of Medusa belong to one of three War Clans, the Lachesis, the Mageara, and the Atropos.

Like their forebears among the Iron Hands, the Sons of Medusa have a particular hatred for weakness in any form. 

In the late 39th Millennium, the Sons of Medusa established a series of fortified asteroid stations in the abandoned mining system of Taelus to serve as a more permanent facility and fortress-monastery for their otherwise fleet-based Chapter.

Deathwatch Veteran (Shadow Wolves chapter)

Veteran with Deathwatch shotgun and storm shield.

The Shadow Wolves were a Codex Astartes-compliant, Loyalist Space Marine Chapter derived from the Imperial Fists' gene-seed. 

Created during an unknown Founding, these Scions of Dorn were known to be a zealous and faithful Chapter by reputation, fighting for the honour of the Emperor of Mankind for thousands of Terran years.

The Shadow Wolves met their ultimate fate at the hands of a Tyranid splinter fleet in 987.M41 when their homeworld of Varadon was overrun by the xenos swarms.

Deathwatch Veteran (Crimson Talons chapter)

Veteran with Stalker pattern boltgun.

The Crimson Talons are a Loyalist Space Marine Chapter of unknown origin and Founding. 

Virtually nothing is currently known about this obscure Chapter within official Imperial records.

Deathwatch Veteran (Hawk Lords chapter)

Veteran with Stalker pattern boltgun.

The Hawk Lords are a Codex Astartes-compliant Loyalist Chapter of Space Marines and a Successor Chapter of the vaunted Ultramarines raised during an unknown Founding, though many suspect that they are a Second Founding Successor Chapter, raised from the existing veteran pilot formations of the Ultramarines 21st Chapter, who were known as "The Hawks". 

The Hawk Lords' Chapter homeworld is the planet called Preyspire. At present, contact with the Chapter's 7th Company has been lost not many light years from Preyspire due to a hostile engagement with unknown xenos forces.

The Hawk Lords Chapter heavily favours the use of their various gunships, and so are unsurprisingly the undisputed masters of aerial combat amongst the Adeptus Astartes. It is not unknown for pilots from other Chapters to hone their piloting skills while on secondment to a Hawk Lords Talon Wing.
